Some mini jigs

I found some vmc tiny jig hooks that are even smaller than my #12 sickles, probably size 14, so I poured some 1/80 ball heads and chubs with them and painted them with Barlows Nova Stone paints in the colors tequila Sunset, Lava Craw and Sunburst. The finished jigs are 5/8-3/4" in length. I like using tiny stuff like this when bluegill and redear set up on their beds and right after the spawn when there is all kinds of tiny fish babies.

Awesome work as usual

man those look great! what kind of tail material is that on the left?

Not sure what picture you are talking about but they were tied with duck feathers, grizzly marabou and Canadian pine squirrel.

Those look really good Jim. The penny really helps to show size.

How you liking that Nova Stone paint. Barlow's is 4 minutes from my office but they closed to the store to walkin traffic due to covid :mad:

Should be killers for gills and sunnies.

Nice work

I like the Nova stone paint but think it's more for bass jigs which I make quite a bit. Won't use it much for crappie jigs except maybe brush tap some on top of other colors.

Nice as always

Extra good stuff Jim. They’d work well for my local gills. They’re small even by my standards. The maribou will fill the bucket!

I wish I lived closer to you Jim! I would be over there all of the time trying to learn how you do it! Thales are nice!

Nice stuff!

Looks good.

Those look great Jim, as always. Great works of art!!!

Jim, how are you presenting them. Fly rod

These work great on a flyrod with a small indicator but rarely use the fly rod since my shoulder surgeries a couple years back. Mostly use ultralight spinning tackle, 2# mono since anything larger is hard to get through the hook eye for me since I'm stubborn and won't use glasses while fishing, only sunglasses.

Wow very nice!! I could use some of those hooks, any chance you remember the model number?

Those Jigs are just slap purdy!

Hook model is 6147 BZ and they are size 12, still smaller than my Matzuo #12 sickles. They are VMC hooks.

You can use both Jim. If you’ve seen a picture of me with shades on, they have readers in them. I’m on pair number 16 or so. Walmart fishing department in a hard case. Only ones I’ve seen in a hard case and they come in different diopters to fit your needs. I couldn’t tie knots without em. Work good driving too. About $20.

has anyone had experience with "crazy angler"?
